NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC TAPS INTO A COMMUNITY OF WORLD-RENOWNED WILDLIFE
CINEMATOGRAPHERS AND PHOTOGRAPHERS TO BRING VIEWERS THE FOUR-NIGHT
MULTI-PLATFORM EVENT YELLOWSTONE LIVE

More than 34 Live Cameras Will Capture America’s Greatest Wilderness
– The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem – in Epic, Breathtaking Fashion
Beginning August 5, at 9/8c

YELLOWSTONE LIVE is Simulcast on Nat Geo WILD from August 6 Through
August 8

Beginning Sunday, August 5, at 9 PM ET/ 6 PM PT, National
Geographic will embark on the journey of a lifetime with the summer’s
biggest and boldest live television event, YELLOWSTONE LIVE, a
four-night multi-platform extravaganza that will showcase the best of
the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.

To complement the live broadcast, National Geographic will give viewers
behind-the-scene access and the chance to experience more of the Greater
Yellowstone Ecosystem on the network’s Facebook, Twitter and Instagram
accounts.

National Geographic’s filmmakers and photographers, an elite group of
the world’s greatest adventurers, photographers, filmmakers and
researchers, will transport nature’s outdoor theater straight to the
small screen in real time when literally anything can happen.

YELLOWSTONE LIVE channels the following expertise:

hyenas in Ethiopia during National Geographic’s EARTH LIVE

These storytellers are at the helm of this unrivaled live broadcast,
which sweeps through more than 22 million acres of wilderness, where
approximately 400 animal species call home and more than four million
tourists flock to each year. From stealth wolf packs on the hunt to
600-pound grizzlies invading campsites to the migration patterns of
pronghorn sheep, National Geographic’s experts will help tell the vivid
story of Yellowstone from their accomplished perspectives and also
underscore the importance of conservation.

"The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem is a unique epicenter for animal
migrations—for example, more than 20,000 elk in at least nine major
herds travel the migratory corridors with Yellowstone National Park and
its adjacent lands," says Arthur Middleton, an ecologist and National
Geographic Society Fellow who leads the research on National
Geographic's Beyond Yellowstone project. "These movements are the veins
and arteries of the ecosystem and are a prime example of how no part of
the western landscape can be separated from the larger whole. Through
recent discoveries, we're able to better understand what threatens these
migrations and how we can protect them."

“With its stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife, Yellowstone National
Park embodies some of the best of what our country has to offer and is a
testament to why we must all work together to defend these treasured
places,” says Theresa Pierno, President and CEO of National Parks
Conservation Association (NPCA). “It’s our hope that after people fall
in love with the park and the entire Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, they
will be transformed from visitors to champions.”

From National Geographic’s wilderness home base in West Yellowstone,
host Josh Elliott will navigate viewers on our trek across America’s
national treasure. Chris Packham, animal expert, will join Elliott in
studio alongside some of Yellowstone’s native wildlife. In addition, YELLOWSTONE
LIVE’s “Roving Reporter” Jenna Wolfe will be in the field to
interview key people whose lives and work are dedicated to maintaining
the historic region. Together, they will give viewers access to prime
locations across the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem—from the Gallatin
Mountain Range and Lamar Valley to Old Faithful and much more.

YELLOWSTONE LIVE will be captured by a complex network of 34 live
cameras, 200 crew, cutting-edge, first-ever cell-phone bundling
technology to broadcast in the most remote locations, live-audience
interaction; digital coverage on multiple platforms and innovative
technologies including the following:

A “Magma Cam,” a thermal imaging camera, which will reveal
Yellowstone’s thermal features

Aerial views of essential wildfires

Aerial filming of a wolf pack in remote wilderness area

Footage from inside a beaver lodge
